Werder Bremen insisted on Saturday that Mesut Ozil was going nowhere after speculation linked him with several English clubs.

"There is no enquiry on the table regarding Mesut Ozil," Bremen general director Klaus Allofs told German daily Bild.

"We are currently in talks with him regarding a contract extension."

The likes of Manchester City and Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Ozil, who put in a series of impressive displays in the recently-ended season.

The 20-year-old scored Bremen's winner in the German Cup final against Bayer Leverkusen.

He also played a pivotal role in helping Thomas Schaaf's side reach the UEFA Cup final before losing to Ukraine's Shakhtar Donetsk.

"When there is a player scoring the winning goal in the cup final, who also appears in the UEFA Cup final, then it is quite a normal fact almost everyone is casting an eye over his abilities," Allofs added.
